Bitcoin Hits Bloomberg and the Front Page of ZeroHedge

Mainstream much?

A big day for Bitcoin today, as articles about the currency have hit both Bloomberg and ZeroHedge.

Bloomberg's article was entitled, "Bitcoin’s Gains May Fuel Central Bank Concerns," while ZeroHedge, with their usual panache, spun the Bloomberg article into, "Is The ECB Responsible For The Second Coming Of Bitcoin?"

The two articles reference the ECB's paper that was released back in November 2011, as well as the fact that the Bitcoin / USD exchange rate has soared over the last few months, hitting nearly $19 last week and floating near that level today.

Expect follow-on articles to hit the mainstream media in the coming days and weeks.
